Fielding, Marcus
- Abstract
Marcus Fielding summarises the Ottoman Empire's First World War campaign in the Sinai, Palestine and Syria, which included raids on the Suez Canal, the defence of the Gaza-Beersheba line and key battles at Katia, Romani, Magdhaba, Jerusalem and Megiddo. He critically examines the relationships between key German and Ottoman leaders and concludes that, although defeated by the Allies, the Turkish soldiers ended the war with their reputation as fighting men intact.
